Canadian Railroads > CN 3309 - Executive train assigned unit sporting a new herald.Date: 09/18/23 09:55 CN 3309 - Executive train assigned unit sporting a new herald. Author: newtonville150 Sept 18th. That was a sweet 120 with the business train on the back. ex-CREX leader and ex-CREX DPU facing forward.
By me at Springhill Junction at 12:02. Note the AC44C6M sporting a new "throwback" herald on the long hood. ...John Reay Springhill NS    Date: 09/18/23 09:56 Re: CN 3309 - Executive train assigned unit sporting a new herald Author: newtonville150 Close up of CN 3309

is in French on the conductor's side. That is a sharp looking business train; hope it makes a run down the Illinois Central Date: 09/18/23 13:23 Re: CN 3309 - Executive train assigned unit sporting a new herald Author: feclark That's a nice catch, John. May I ask the identity of the third unit? That's a very fresh-looking 4700 or 4800 series diesel. The tilted wafer is fine, but seriously, they couldn't make it about 90% of that size, so that it's not resting on the walkway? That's just looks poorly planned.

While we're at it, lets bring back BCR green too.
